Scenic Sunday: Klagenfurt

We don't usually take those little river cruises when we travel, but we did in the charming, old, Austrian city of Klagenfurt. I am delighted we did because, as you can see, it was a beautiful trip--definitely scenic in my book!Visit other "scenic" blogs at Scenic Sunday

These are so beautiful.. I just got a shot of a house in Redmond Washington that was probably meant to be a copy of this kind of house, which is very unusual in Washington State.. I will post it one of these days, it is quite lovely like these. Wonderful post, I would love to go on this cruise!

Autumn Belle--thank you. Yes, fairy tale is a good description. We were quite surprised at how beautiful it was--Klagenfurt, while charming, was a little bit dusty if you know what I mean, as though its time was past. But this cruise was really special.Carol-so pleased you enjoyed the ride! Yes, I do collect the mugs, all cities & countries. I have more than 100 (some were given to me), they line our kitchen and make it quite cheerful. Glad you like them, seemed like a nice complement to travel photos!Christina & Tricia--thanks, hope I did the cruise justice!Jan--how wonderful, you must let me know when you post it, I love old buildings (as you can tell!).

Originally from New York, I spent many years in Belgium, as well as six months in the former USSR. I'm happily living stateside now, but I've taken many photos along the way and I'd like to share some. On a different note, I'm doing my best to turn the Brit hubcap into a Yank!
